4.2PRELIMINARY CHECKS
When you receive the machine, check that it is complete and no parts are missing.
If there are any damaged parts, inform your local reseller or UNIGREEN directly in good time.
When the machine is delivered, make sure you ask:
a)that the machine is delivered with all of its parts fitted and that the fitting meets the requisites in table N° 12a page 29. (This procedure is necessary because for reasons of space during transportation the machine is often delivered partially dismantled).
b)that it is tested in your presence in particular checking:
=that the suction filter and the inside of the tank are clean and free of work residues.

4.3TRANSPORTING AND MOVING THE MACHINE
Every time you have to lift the machine, before starting the operation, always make sure the lifting gear and the relevant tools and equipment (cables, hooks, etc..) are suitable for lifting the load and check the stability of the same.
The dry weight of the machine at the maximum level of fitting and with all the accessories allowed is stamped on the nameplate; use slings and lifting gear with a adequate
Don’t stand the sprayer on soft ground or steep slopes.
Never lift or move the sprayers by hand if there is liquid in the tank. The machine will weigh more and the movement of the liquid can change the centre of gravity causing uncontrolled movements.
We recommend using slings as shown in the figure, the lifting points to use on the machine are indicated with the relevant symbol.
Don’t lift the machine with the forks of a forklift truck because the machine can tip over due to the overhanging weight of the booms.
Don’t pass or stand under the machine when it is being lifted.
4.3.1 TOWED SPRAYERS
The towed sprayers have a folding parking wheel so the machine can be moved around by hand on flat, compact ground, with the tank empty. In general the use of the relevant chocks is necessary (supplied with the machine and positioned on the two sides of the same, as shown in the figure to the side) to guarantee the stability of the machine.
To lift the machine, follow the instructions above.
